trademark.<br /><br />Then file an in-rem lawsuit against the domain.  Be sure to use a favorable jurisdiction.  Most domain owners will not pay for a lawyer (especially if your chosen jurisdiction is very far from where they live) and you will get a default judgement.  This works especially well when the cost of defending the lawsuit exceeds the value of the domain.<br /><br />If their registrar is in the US, then a court ruling in any state can compel the registrar to hand over the domain.  However, if they are using an off-shore registrar, you have to go through the ICANN resolution procedure.<br /><br />If an in-rem lawsuit does not work, then use the ICANN resolution procedure.<br /><br />Squatters have had thousands of their domains in inventory seized through in-rem lawsuits the ICANN dispute resolution procedures.<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_V6APh6F_answer_actions"><span id="ld_M9jVwE_156"><a class="view_comments supp " href="#"

 &quot;Sell the company or we will execute our redemption rights...&quot; and give the VCs leverage over management.<br /><br />If VCs trigger their redemption rights and the company fails to meet the obligation, the VCs may be able to take over the board of directors of the company.<br /><br />I am actually surprised that this does not happen more often.  I am not sure how popular redemption

dimensions and which cannot exist for any other dimension number.  The symmetry that contains our universe to three spatial dimensions is very closely related to quaternions and the cross-product operator.<br /><br />It turns out that our typical classical physics model is not invariant under all the unitary transformations on its coordinate system.  Maxwell&#039;s equations are invariant under rotations of the coordinate system, however any scalar defined in terms of a cross product is actually negated under a flip of the coordinates (parity).<br /><br />&lt;x | y &gt; = &lt; -x | -y &gt;<br /><br />Inner products are preserved under flipping.  However, for cross products,<br />a x b = -1* ( -a x -b)  , where a and b are vectors and x is the cross product operator.<br /><br />A scalar property defined as the inner product of a vector and the cross product of two vectors, is therefore not invariant under inversion of the coordinate system!<br />Some of the things physicists call scalars, are not actually scalars!  They are pseudo-scalars because they are not invariant under a unitary transformation of the coordinate system!<br /><br />This means the vector space is not actually a Hilbert Space and the vectors are not actually vectors, but &quot;pseudo-vectors&quot; (you have to rotate them through 4*pi radians on any axis to get back where they stated.  They are anti-symmetric under inversion of the coordinate system).  The inner product of a vector and a pseudo-vector is actually a pseudo-scalar, but physicists like to pretend that these are just scalars (but they are not).<br /><br />The unitary transformations are the isometries of the inner-product metric on the Hilbert Space and physicists often do not differentiate between the mathematics used to model/describe the system and the actual system state and therefore these confusions occur.<br /><br />The reason we have 3 dimensions is that the cross-product operator and the symmetries we observe, cannot exist in a higher or lower number of dimensions.<br /><br />The pseudo-scalars and pseudo-vectors operations you need only exist in certain dimension numbers, one of which is 3.  I think 4, 7, 11 and 21 also seem to work, but that there are only a small number possible dimensions due to mathematical symmetry constraints.<br /><br />I wish I could explain this better, but I am not an expert on the Clifford Algebras.<br />I think the answer is in this book:<br /><br />Space-Time Algebra <a href="http://amzn.to/dZjB4d" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="external_link">http://amzn.to/dZ<wbr />jB4d</a><br /><br />If you want conservation of energy, 1/r^2 laws or Lorentz invariance, you are mathematically constrained to a very small number of possible spatial dimensions.  If you throw away any of the implied symmetries, you end up with something that does not resemble our universe.<br /><br />Most of theoretical physics today is just thinly disguised group theory.<br /><br />For instance, &quot;conservation of energy&quot; is just invariance of a system&#039;s Hamiltonian func<wbr />tion under translation in time.  If something is true in physics, it is because a set of symmetries forces it to be true.<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_hRBONkN_answer_actions"><span id="ld_M9jVwE_186"><a class="view_comments supp " href="#" id="__w2_OhmC1iO_view_comment_link">Add Comment</a></span><span class="bullet"> &bull;

Processing tasks that are currently being performed by humans, account for about 30% of United States labor costs.  Labor costs are the dominate restraint on profit and consume the majority of US GDP.  Over the next fifty years, many of the tasks currently performed by humans in the NLP domain, will become tasks that can be automated, as the field advances.<br /><br />This paper suggests that the value of better NLP infrastructure is 3 trillion a year.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.mkbergman.com/82/untapped-assets-the-3-trillion-value-of-us-enterprise-documents/" rel="nofollow"

database technologies such as &quot;semantic web&quot; and the usage of analytics to improve the efficiency of resource allocation in the enterprise.  NLP is just one facet of a group of technologies which are likely to have a major impact on the structure of and function of corporations going into the future.<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_LMIVA8f_answer_actions"><span id="ld_5sX5ZH_794"><a

not the revenue stream of the company.<br /><br />It would probably be more effective for Google to pay people $60 per active Buzz user they sign up, than to buy Twitter at $60/user, but they will try to buy Twitter anyways.  Yahoo made an offer to Facebook of $260 per user.  Will Facebook even be able to realize revenues of $260 per user over the lifetime of the user?<br /><br />Companies will pay a premium to acquire platform control and to buy companies like Path to acquire their user-bases.  It is not very clear why they will pay a premium for these users if they have no effective way of monetizing the user-base.<br /><br />Technology companies in general do not pay dividends and often have a cash hoard they need to get rid of.  Google has so much money that it is opening up a corporate bond trading desk to invest it.  Maybe a 300 million dollar acquisition of a company like Slide at $50 a user increases the market cap of companies like Google, more than the loss of cash decreases the market cap of these companies.<br /><br />Historically, most mergers and acquisitions are futile and are a waste of money.  Sometimes they are strategic, but more often they are represent a net loss of value for the acquiring company, but companies keep doing these large value destroying acquisitions f<wbr />or unknown reasons.<br /><br />People will continue to start companies with no business model and no expectations for revenue, as long as these companies continue to be bought.<br /><br />Smaller, early stage acquisitions howeve<wbr />r can create value and are a valuable source of new products and technological innovations.  This is one reasons angel portfolios have been doing so well in recent years.  These companies usually exit below 30 million and the returns are too small to interest traditional VC funds, but they have been out-performing VC by a wide margin.<br /><br />I think there is still however a whole cottage industry of building up companies with no revenue and flipping them (ex. Twitter).  Only a few very high profile investors with strong connections to the potential acquiring companies will be able to generate returns on these companies however.<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_GgzGWMD_answer_actions"><span id="ld_M9jVwE_216"><a class="view_comments supp " href="#" id="__w2_XUTmDMd_view_comment_link">7 Comments</a></span><span class="bullet"> &bull; </span><span id="ld_M9jVwE_217"><a class="answer_permalink" href="/Does-the-Silicon-Valley-mindset-give-companies-a-pass-for-not-having-a-business-model-because-that-would-hinder-innovation/answer/Brandon-Smietana"><span class="datetime" id="__w2_c19VrKc_datespan">Insert a dynamic date here</span></a><span id="ld_M9jVwE_275"></span></span></div><div id="ld_M9jVwE_218"><div class="comments answer_comments hidden" id="__w2_ButFg9j_answer_comments"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_276"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_346"><a name="comment125063"></a><div class="comment p0_5" id="__w2_pJ53Y5Q_comment"><p class="comment_text">&quot;Historically, most mergers and acquisitions are futile and are a waste of money.  Sometimes they are strategic, but more often they are represent a net loss of value for the acquiring company, but companies keep doing these large value destroying acquisitions f<wbr />or unknown reasons.&quot;<br /><br />These deals are driven by investment banks, who generate handsome fees from these deals.

dimensions and which cannot exist for any other dimension number.  The symmetry that contains our universe to three spatial dimensions is very closely related to quaternions and the cross-product operator.<br /><br />It turns out that our typical classical physics model is not invariant under all the unitary transformations on its coordinate system.  Maxwell&#039;s equations are invariant under rotations of the coordinate system, however any scalar defined in terms of a cross product is actually negated under a flip of the coordinates (parity).<br /><br />&lt;x | y &gt; = &lt; -x | -y &gt;<br /><br />Inner products are preserved under flipping.  However, for cross products,<br />a x b = -1* ( -a x -b)  , where a and b are vectors and x is the cross product operator.<br /><br />A scalar property defined as the inner product of a vector and the cross product of two vectors, is therefore not invariant under inversion of the coordinate system!<br />Some of the things physicists call scalars, are not actually scalars!  They are pseudo-scalars because they are not invariant under a unitary transformation of the coordinate system!<br /><br />This means the vector space is not actually a Hilbert Space and the vectors are not actually vectors, but &quot;pseudo-vectors&quot; (you have to rotate them through 4*pi radians on any axis to get back where they stated.  They are anti-symmetric under inversion of the coordinate system).  The inner product of a vector and a pseudo-vector is actually a pseudo-scalar, but physicists like to pretend that these are just scalars (but they are not).<br /><br />The unitary transformations are the isometries of the inner-product metric on the Hilbert Space and physicists often do not differentiate between the mathematics used to model/describe the system and the actual system state and therefore these confusions occur.<br /><br />The reason we have 3 dimensions is that the cross-product operator and the symmetries we observe, cannot exist in a higher or lower number of dimensions.<br /><br />The pseudo-scalars and pseudo-vectors operations you need only exist in certain dimension numbers, one of which is 3.  I think 4, 7, 11 and 21 also seem to work, but that there are only a small number possible dimensions due to mathematical symmetry constraints.<br /><br />I wish I could explain this better, but I am not an expert on the Clifford Algebras.<br />I think the answer is in this book:<br /><br />Space-Time Algebra <a href="http://amzn.to/dZjB4d" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="external_link">http://amzn.to/dZ<wbr />jB4d</a><br /><br />If you want conservation of energy, 1/r^2 laws or Lorentz invariance, you are mathematically constrained to a very small number of possible spatial dimensions.  If you throw away any of the implied symmetries, you end up with something that does not resemble our universe.<br /><br />Most of theoretical physics today is just thinly disguised group theory.<br /><br />For instance, &quot;conservation of energy&quot; is just invariance of a system&#039;s Hamiltonian func<wbr />tion under translation in time.  If something is true in physics, it is because a set of symmetries forces it to be true.<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_xLAOE1d_answer_actions"><span id="ld_5sX5ZH_859"><a class="view_comments supp " href="#" id="__w2_tbuGNVr_view_comment_link">Add Comment</a></span><span class="bullet"> &bull;

Short-term capital gains should be lowered to the level of long-term rates.<br /><br />The US should become a tax haven for foreign investment.<br /><br />A consumption based tax makes more sense than an income tax, especially from the perspective of capital accumulation.</p><p class="action_bar"><a class="user" href="/Brandon-Smietana">Brandon Smietana</a><span class="bullet"> &bull; </span><span class="datetime" id="__w2_rjZNUmN_datespan">Insert a dynamic date here</span></p></div></div><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_992"><a name="comment128002"></a><div class="comment p0_5" id="__w2_gYVb8Np_comment"><p class="comment_text">Actually though due to the Feds artificially keeping interest rates low.

 To reward insiders with a 10% yearly profit for holding shares until IPO?<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_eHK9QDd_answer_actions"><span id="ld_M9jVwE_236"><a class="view_comments supp " href="#" id="__w2_ggLeGsp_view_comment_link">Add Comment</a></span><span class="bullet"> &bull; </span><span id="ld_M9jVwE_237"><a class="answer_permalink" href="/What-do-Facebook-employees-think-about-the-37signals-post-on-the-valuation-of-Facebook/answer/Brandon-Smietana"><span class="datetime" id="__w2_ikvBFlx_datespan">Insert a dynamic date here</span></a><span id="ld_M9jVwE_283"></span></span></div><div id="ld_M9jVwE_238"><div class="comments answer_comments hidden" id="__w2_hNmdT2M_answer_comments"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_284"></div><div class="comment light p0_5">Cannot add comment at this time.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="pagedlist_item" id="ld_M9jVwE_86"><div class="feed_item stream_feed_item p1" id="__w2_SvBQbJt_item"><div class="e_col w4_5"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_125"><div class="feed_item_question"><h2><span id="ld_M9jVwE_147"><span id="ld_M9jVwE_325"></span><a class="question_link" href="/What-do-employers-mean-when-they-ask-for-5-7-years-experience-working-in-social-media" id="__w2_uohIVgn_link"><span id="ld_M9jVwE_326"><span class="best_source_icon" id="__w2_RSoBArI_icon"></span></span>What do employers mean when they ask for 5-7 years experience working in social media?</a></span></h2></div></div><div id="ld_M9jVwE_126"><div class="feed_item_answer answer_text" id="__w2_a11OCDU_answer"><div class="rating_buttons"><div id="__w2_a11OCDU_answer_voting"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_239"><div class="rating_buttons "><div class="rating_options"><a class="lil_button rate_up" href="#" id="__w2_MugZCqt_answer_vote_up_link">&nbsp;</a><a class="lil_button rate_down" href="#" id="__w2_MugZCqt_answer_vote_down_link">&nbsp;</a></div></div></div></div></div><div class="feed_item_answer_content answer_content"><div class="answer_user"><span class="feed_item_answer_user" id="__w2_a11OCDU_answer_user_sig"><a class="user" href="/Brandon-Smietana">Brandon Smietana</a><span class="rep">, </span><span id="__w2_zrMTMMw_link"><span class="rep">Founder of Symbolic Analytics</span></span><div class="hover_menu hidden" style="display: none" id="__w2_zrMTMMw_menu"><div class="hover_menu_nub"></div><div class="menu_contents growl_notification" id="__w2_zrMTMMw_menu_contents"> </div></div></span><div id="__w2_a11OCDU_answer_voters"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_240"><span class="answer_voters"><span class="answer_voter_callout"><strong class="voter_count">18</strong> votes</span> by <span id="__w2_O1maUbY_view_all"><a class="user" href="/Yishan-Wong">Yishan Wong</a>, <a class="user" href="/Leif-Walsh">Leif Walsh</a>, <a class="user" href="/Arun-Gupta-1">Arun Gupta</a>, </span> <a class="more_link" href="#" id="__w2_O1maUbY_view_all_link">(more)</a><span class="hidden" id="__w2_O1maUbY_all_phrases"><a class="user" href="/Yishan-Wong">Yishan Wong</a>, <a class="user" href="/Leif-Walsh">Leif Walsh</a>, <a class="user" href="/Arun-Gupta-1">Arun Gupta</a>, <a class="user" href="/Evan-Weiss">Evan Weiss</a>, <a class="user" href="/Ming-Yeow-Ng">Ming Yeow Ng</a>, <a class="user" href="/Michael-Wolfe">Michael Wolfe</a>, <a class="user" href="/J.C.-Hewitt">J.C.

limitations are knowledge.<br /><br />This is a very broad topic and I cannot cover it exhaustively, but will gloss over some of the things which will help you become more successful.<br /><br /><b>Marketing&gt; </b><br /><br />Do you know how to drive user growth?  Viral marketing, affiliate marketing, word of mouth, and so on.  Runescape succeeded beca<wbr />use it had an innovative affiliate rela<wbr />tionship with one of the larger gaming studios.  World of Warcraft used advertisements on the Battlenet platform to drive WoW growth (free customer acquisition).<br /><br />There were many similar RPGs to Runescape, but its affiliate marketing program set it apart.<br /><br /><b>Technical&gt;</b><br /><br />Do you know how to get around relational database performance limitations?  Can you solve the scalability issues?  How do you distribute patches to the client?  Do you know how to prevent item duplication?  Do you have one continuous world or do you need to shard the servers?  Do you know how to use compression to lower bandwidth costs?<br /><br />Many successful MMOs died because they grew to the point that they were no longer playable, because they were hitting relational database performance limitations and were too poorly designed to easily modify.  If you have experience building scalability syst<wbr />ems, you can build in application level database partitioning from day one.<br /><br />In a recent engine we built, we abandoned a relational database all together and stored everything in ram (with the database only being used for serialization).  That improved performance from 2000 reads per second to over 85,000 reads per second.  That is a 40x savings in hardware costs.<br /><br />We similarly achieved a 50x savings in bandwidth costs by adapting advanced compression methodologies (an arithmetic coding implementation tailored to the message we were sending).<br /><br />Today any developer can throw up an MMO in flash and get 800k users on the Facebook platform.  However, to scale you need to have an intimate understanding of hardware performance, software design for distributed high performance systems, compression algorithms and computer networking.<br /><br />Even extremely successful companies such as the makers of Everyquest lacked some of these organizational capacities.  Everquest began to save 3 million dollars a month when they realized they could compress client/server communications!<br /><br /><b>Monetization&gt;</b><br /><br />Do you know how to optimize your monetization strateg<wbr />ies?  Are you going to monetize on subscriptions, in-game sales or content packs?  Should your game be freemium or subscription?<br /><br />Very large companies with extremely competent and experienced industry executives often make horrible errors of judgement when making these choices.  One MMO for instance, began as a subscription based service and was unprofitable, but later switched to free to play and began to grow quickly and eventually became a cash-cow.<br /><br />Monetization requires experience with A/B testing.  Most companies do not have experience with analytics and this depresses their revenue growth.<br /><br />Companies like Zynga, who have mastered A/B testing methodologies are raping everyone else in the industry.  Consider how simple Farmville is compared to your average MMO RPG which requires 50 developers and 300 artists working 4 years to produce.  Consider that Farmville is also more profitable than most MMO RPGs.<br /><br />New platforms such as Facebook have completely changed the revenue model of the flash gaming industry.  The economics of MMOs are also being changed by new revenue models inspired by the success of games on the Facebook platform.<br /><br />The economics of game production are also changing rapidly.  Today a 2 person development team can push out an MMO RPG on Facebook in 3 months of development time and get 60,000 users and $30,000/month in revenue.  <br /><br />Compare this to the 100 million dollar, 4 year, 250 employee development projects typical of traditional MMOs.  Today&#039;s MMOs can break even at a much larger scale.  You wont be buying a Gulfstream with your social gaming revenue, but a 300k MAU game is Ferrari money.<br /><br />The proliferation of MMOs and their decreasing cost is causing increasing market segmentation.<br /><br />The scale at which you can break even is much smaller and the number of MMOs is increasing every year.  The challenge is no longer building the MMO, but acquiring users, retaining users and monetizing users.<br /><br />Today, thousands of innovative games and game-play mechanisms are produced each year, by innovative independent de<wbr />velopers.  However, most of these games are commercial failures, not because they are not innovative or because they are not fun; but rather because their creators do not have skill in marketing and customer acquisition stra<wbr />tegies.<br /><br />For instance, games like Farmville (which are not very &#039;fun&#039;) can be extremely successful commercially with the right marketing strategies, and extensive A/B testing your monetization strategy, viral marketing, user retention and conversion funnels.<br /><br />Also, cross promotion between your games is becoming a much more important marketing strategy.  Companies like Zynga leverage their existing user-base to lower their customer acquisition cost for their new games.<br /><br />Going into the future, I think we will see many larger studios which are organized as several independent devel<wbr />opment teams within a larger company, where the marketing, A/B testing and technical back-end architecture is shared between the development groups.<br /><br />We are also seeing groups of independent studios forming larger aggregate cross promoting groups.  This may put many of the medium sized studios on equal footing with companies like Zynga who are able to leverage their large installed base to lower their customer acquisition cost<wbr />s.<div class="action_bar"

class="comment_text">Hearsay.<br /><br />The fundamental problem today is driving users into your conversion funnel.  We can build the games, but getting users is another problem.<br /><br />Ruinscape grew rapidly because of its affiliate relationship with a large flash games portal.  That is public knowledge, its in the business press somewhere.<br /><br />What drove WoW subscription growth is a question that only Blizzard executives can answer.  However its clear that Blizzard&#039;s platform control over Bnet allowed Blizzard to advertise WoW to Blizzard&#039;s installed base of Starcraft, Warcraft III and Diablo 2 players.<br /><br />This is similar to Zynga&#039;s strategy of cross promoting its games and funneling Farmville users onto its other media properties.<br /><br />Cross promotion and platform control are good strategies for driving user growth, lowering user acquisition costs and building momentum for your games.</p><p class="action_bar"><a class="user"

not the revenue stream of the company.<br /><br />It would probably be more effective for Google to pay people $60 per active Buzz user they sign up, than to buy Twitter at $60/user, but they will try to buy Twitter anyways.  Yahoo made an offer to Facebook of $260 per user.  Will Facebook even be able to realize revenues of $260 per user over the lifetime of the user?<br /><br />Companies will pay a premium to acquire platform control and to buy companies like Path to acquire their user-bases.  It is not very clear why they will pay a premium for these users if they have no effective way of monetizing the user-base.<br /><br />Technology companies in general do not pay dividends and often have a cash hoard they need to get rid of.  Google has so much money that it is opening up a corporate bond trading desk to invest it.  Maybe a 300 million dollar acquisition of a company like Slide at $50 a user increases the market cap of companies like Google, more than the loss of cash decreases the market cap of these companies.<br /><br />Historically, most mergers and acquisitions are futile and are a waste of money.  Sometimes they are strategic, but more often they are represent a net loss of value for the acquiring company, but companies keep doing these large value destroying acquisitions f<wbr />or unknown reasons.<br /><br />People will continue to start companies with no business model and no expectations for revenue, as long as these companies continue to be bought.<br /><br />Smaller, early stage acquisitions howeve<wbr />r can create value and are a valuable source of new products and technological innovations.  This is one reasons angel portfolios have been doing so well in recent years.  These companies usually exit below 30 million and the returns are too small to interest traditional VC funds, but they have been out-performing VC by a wide margin.<br /><br />I think there is still however a whole cottage industry of building up companies with no revenue and flipping them (ex. Twitter).  Only a few very high profile investors with strong connections to the potential acquiring companies will be able to generate returns on these companies however.<div class="action_bar" id="__w2_c4sU83v_answer_actions"><span id="ld_5sX5ZH_889"><a class="view_comments supp " href="#" id="__w2_EDqVWds_view_comment_link">7 Comments</a></span><span class="bullet"> &bull; </span><span id="ld_5sX5ZH_890"><a class="answer_permalink" href="/Does-the-Silicon-Valley-mindset-give-companies-a-pass-for-not-having-a-business-model-because-that-would-hinder-innovation/answer/Brandon-Smietana"><span class="datetime" id="__w2_eRdYVUz_datespan">Insert a dynamic date here</span></a><span id="ld_5sX5ZH_930"></span></span></div><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_891"><div class="comments answer_comments hidden" id="__w2_W8h6wtk_answer_comments"><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_931"><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_1001"><a name="comment125063"></a><div class="comment p0_5" id="__w2_qeyQWBm_comment"><p class="comment_text">&quot;Historically, most mergers and acquisitions are futile and are a waste of money.  Sometimes they are strategic, but more often they are represent a net loss of value for the acquiring company, but companies keep doing these large value destroying acquisitions f<wbr />or unknown reasons.&quot;<br /><br />These deals are driven by investment banks, who generate handsome fees from these deals.

not the revenue stream of the company.<br /><br />It would probably be more effective for Google to pay people $60 per active Buzz user they sign up, than to buy Twitter at $60/user, but they will try to buy Twitter anyways.  Yahoo made an offer to Facebook of $260 per user.  Will Facebook even be able to realize revenues of $260 per user over the lifetime of the user?<br /><br />Companies will pay a premium to acquire platform control and to buy companies like Path to acquire their user-bases.  It is not very clear why they will pay a premium for these users if they have no effective way of monetizing the user-base.<br /><br />Technology companies in general do not pay dividends and often have a cash hoard they need to get rid of.  Google has so much money that it is opening up a corporate bond trading desk to invest it.  Maybe a 300 million dollar acquisition of a company like Slide at $50 a user increases the market cap of companies like Google, more than the loss of cash decreases the market cap of these companies.<br /><br />Historically, most mergers and acquisitions are futile and are a waste of money.  Sometimes they are strategic, but more often they are represent a net loss of value for the acquiring company, but companies keep doing these large value destroying acquisitions f<wbr />or unknown reasons.<br /><br />People will continue to start companies with no business model and no expectations for revenue, as long as these companies continue to be bought.<br /><br />Smaller, early stage acquisitions howeve<wbr />r can create value and are a valuable source of new products and technological innovations.  This is one reasons angel portfolios have been doing so well in recent years.  These companies usually exit below 30 million and the returns are too small to interest traditional VC funds, but they have been out-performing VC by a wide margin.<br /><br />I think there is still however a whole cottage industry of building up companies with no revenue and flipping them (ex. Twitter).  Only a few very high profile investors with strong connections to the potential acquiring companies will be able to generate returns on these companies however.</div></div></div></div></div><div id="ld_M9jVwE_56"><div class="feed_item stream_feed_item p1 row"><div class="w0_5 e_col"><div class="big_number_stat"><div class="number">3</div><div class="text">Votes</div></div></div><div class="e_col side_col w2"><div class="feed_item_question"><h2><a href="/Which-fast-serial-algorithms-dont-have-efficient-parallel-equivalents/answer/Brandon-Smietana">Which fast serial algorithms don&#039;t have efficient parallel equivalents?</a></h2></div><div class="inline" id="__w2_wffp2Sl_truncated"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_64"><div class="truncated_thumbnail_holder"></div>Cycle detection in directed graphs has linear time serial algorithms, however it is provable difficult to parallize.  The fastest parallel algorith... <a class="more_link" href="#" id="__w2_Bfdk5tP_more_link">(more)</a> </div></div><div class="hidden expanded_q_text" id="__w2_wffp2Sl_expanded"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_65">Cycle detection in directed graphs has linear time serial algorithms, however it is provable difficult to parallize.  The fastest parallel algorithms scale as sqrt(n) where n is the number of processors.<br /><br />This is very interesting because cycle detection algorithms are a critical part of 3-SAT solvers and it suggests that they may be difficult to scale out over multiple CPUs without a shared memory architecture.  However in practice you are often only interested in small degree cycles and there are efficient algorithms for detecting these.<br /><br />These problems will become a more important performance bottleneck as OWL and semantic web reasoners are deployed on web-scale dataset that require distributed computing.</div></div></div></div></div><div id="ld_M9jVwE_57"><div class="feed_item stream_feed_item p1 row"><div class="w0_5 e_col"><div class="big_number_stat"><div class="number">3</div><div class="text">Votes</div></div></div><div class="e_col side_col w2"><div class="feed_item_question"><h2><a href="/If-the-U-S-Capital-Gains-tax-rate-went-back-to-20-what-would-happen/answer/Brandon-Smietana">If the U.S. Capital Gains tax rate went back to 20%, what would happen?</a></h2></div><div class="inline" id="__w2_PuelNyR_truncated"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_66"><div class="truncated_thumbnail_holder"></div>The capital gains tax is an implicit tax on wealth, because nominal increases in asset value are taxed and not the inflation adjusted purchasing po... <a class="more_link" href="#" id="__w2_EFu20FJ_more_link">(more)</a> </div></div><div class="hidden expanded_q_text" id="__w2_PuelNyR_expanded"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_67">The capital gains tax is an implicit tax on wealth, because nominal increases in asset value are taxed and not the inflation adjusted purchasing power of the assets being held for investment.<br /><br />A 33% increase in the capital gains tax, to 20%, will severely erode capital accumulation in America (even more than the current 15% tax).<br /><br />The transition to a higher capital gains tax rate combined with a high inflation rate and currency devaluation could mark the end of the American empire.  An increase in the capital gains tax rate will accelerate capital flight.  It is believed by many economists that an increase in the capital gains tax rate will decrease tax revenues.<br /><br />Tax revenues are maximized when capital accumulation is maximized and economic studies suggest that tax revenue is maximized when the capital gains tax rates are zero.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="footer wrapper"><div class="contents"><div class="footer_nav row"><div class="e_col footer_links w8"><div id="ld_M9jVwE_47"><ul class="nav_list"><li class="about"><a href="/about">About</a></li><li class="jobs"><a href="/jobs">Jobs</a></li><li class="privacy"><a href="/about/privacy">Privacy</a></li><li class="tos"><a href="/about/tos">Terms</a></li><li class="press"><a href="/press">Press</a></li><li><span class="bullet"> &bull; </span></li><li class="signup"><a href="/login/index">Login</a></li><li class="signup"><a href="/signup/index">Sign Up</a></li><li class="mobile nav_sub_item"><a href="#" id="__w2_VbCqEwo_mobile_site">Mobile Site</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="above_page_banner hidden" id="__w2_YeGBNxK_banner">There are some updates to this page that haven&#039;t been applied yet because you&#039;ve entered some data into a form.

not the revenue stream of the company.<br /><br />It would probably be more effective for Google to pay people $60 per active Buzz user they sign up, than to buy Twitter at $60/user, but they will try to buy Twitter anyways.  Yahoo made an offer to Facebook of $260 per user.  Will Facebook even be able to realize revenues of $260 per user over the lifetime of the user?<br /><br />Companies will pay a premium to acquire platform control and to buy companies like Path to acquire their user-bases.  It is not very clear why they will pay a premium for these users if they have no effective way of monetizing the user-base.<br /><br />Technology companies in general do not pay dividends and often have a cash hoard they need to get rid of.  Google has so much money that it is opening up a corporate bond trading desk to invest it.  Maybe a 300 million dollar acquisition of a company like Slide at $50 a user increases the market cap of companies like Google, more than the loss of cash decreases the market cap of these companies.<br /><br />Historically, most mergers and acquisitions are futile and are a waste of money.  Sometimes they are strategic, but more often they are represent a net loss of value for the acquiring company, but companies keep doing these large value destroying acquisitions f<wbr />or unknown reasons.<br /><br />People will continue to start companies with no business model and no expectations for revenue, as long as these companies continue to be bought.<br /><br />Smaller, early stage acquisitions howeve<wbr />r can create value and are a valuable source of new products and technological innovations.  This is one reasons angel portfolios have been doing so well in recent years.  These companies usually exit below 30 million and the returns are too small to interest traditional VC funds, but they have been out-performing VC by a wide margin.<br /><br />I think there is still however a whole cottage industry of building up companies with no revenue and flipping them (ex. Twitter).  Only a few very high profile investors with strong connections to the potential acquiring companies will be able to generate returns on these companies however.</div></div></div></div></div><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_700"><div class="feed_item stream_feed_item p1 row"><div class="w0_5 e_col"><div class="big_number_stat"><div class="number">3</div><div class="text">Votes</div></div></div><div class="e_col side_col w2"><div class="feed_item_question"><h2><a href="/Which-fast-serial-algorithms-dont-have-efficient-parallel-equivalents/answer/Brandon-Smietana">Which fast serial algorithms don&#039;t have efficient parallel equivalents?</a></h2></div><div class="inline" id="__w2_gpA5RmI_truncated"><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_709"><div class="truncated_thumbnail_holder"></div>Cycle detection in directed graphs has linear time serial algorithms, however it is provable difficult to parallize.  The fastest parallel algorith... <a class="more_link" href="#" id="__w2_g4fQTJq_more_link">(more)</a> </div></div><div class="hidden expanded_q_text" id="__w2_gpA5RmI_expanded"><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_710">Cycle detection in directed graphs has linear time serial algorithms, however it is provable difficult to parallize.  The fastest parallel algorithms scale as sqrt(n) where n is the number of processors.<br /><br />This is very interesting because cycle detection algorithms are a critical part of 3-SAT solvers and it suggests that they may be difficult to scale out over multiple CPUs without a shared memory architecture.  However in practice you are often only interested in small degree cycles and there are efficient algorithms for detecting these.<br /><br />These problems will become a more important performance bottleneck as OWL and semantic web reasoners are deployed on web-scale dataset that require distributed computing.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="footer wrapper"><div class="contents"><div class="footer_nav row"><div class="e_col footer_links w8"><div id="ld_5sX5ZH_690"><ul class="nav_list"><li class="about"><a href="/about">About</a></li><li class="jobs"><a href="/jobs">Jobs</a></li><li class="privacy"><a href="/about/privacy">Privacy</a></li><li class="tos"><a href="/about/tos">Terms</a></li><li class="press"><a href="/press">Press</a></li><li><span class="bullet"> &bull; </span></li><li class="signup"><a href="/login/index">Login</a></li><li class="signup"><a href="/signup/index">Sign Up</a></li><li class="mobile nav_sub_item"><a href="#" id="__w2_sL9WvcP_mobile_site">Mobile Site</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="above_page_banner hidden" id="__w2_TKydyMV_banner">There are some updates to this page that haven&#039;t been applied yet because you&#039;ve entered some data into a form.
